We were collected from our hotel promptly by Mohammed and driven as a couple in a comfortable vehicle through the most amazing country-side and landscape on our way to Essaouira. Mohammed is an excellent guide with good local knowledge, and there is nothing he won’t try and help you with. The journey is 3 hours long so you should take the break as suggested by Mohammed and have a coffee or tea and use the bathroom. On arriving in Essaouira, we were taken to the Medina and strolled around. This was very informal and as it was just the two of us we enjoyed this a lot. I would advise letting Mohammed know in advance what you’d like to see and this will enable him to plan your tour to suit you. The Medina has a variety of faces, some trendy and others old-world and hectic. Choose wisely. We had lunch in a very good restaurant by the sea, where we had fish which was cooked beautifully. We had to leave early as we had another engagement in Agadir but this tour does offer you a chance to carry on in the Medina and the city after lunch. We would happily do any tour with Mohammed as he is laid back, friendly and knowledgeable.

Very nice trip along the beautiful Atlantic coast of Morroco from Agadir to Essaouira historically Mogadur. A place to be because of its fish port, the souk market and the old castle.

The tour was amazing and more that we have expected. Mohamed was very king we could not have better guide tour then him. We saw so many thing in one day and took pictures on some beautiful hiding places on the way to take pictures. Thank you, Merci
